You guys, I am alive! But much more importantly, it's national doughnut day.
If I'd known, I would have prepared accordingly. (Who makes up these days?)
You might not know it, but my grandparents had a brief fling with a doughnut franchise and my mom was unpaid labor back in high school, working alone on the night shift. She still loves doughnuts (shockingly, right?), but we're a pretty discriminating family. I only eat doughnuts a few times a year, because I only want good ones. Also, doughnuts are a terribly ineffective get rich quick scheme.
Photos from last weekend are still hanging out in my camera, and I'm not even sure how many I managed to take. The wedding is in three months. We are trying to get our asses in gear. Will report soonest.

I had no idea until this morning that it was Donut Day. At first I was annoyed that I hadn't prepared anything, but then I realized it wouldn't have mattered since I can't find a good donut anywhere here in Sweden. Oh, well... Next year maybe?
ReplyDeleteDonut Day? Ha, I have to declare one here definitely!
ReplyDeleteOr to invent a local holiday called 'loukoumades' day - you lived in Greece I am sure you tried them.
xxx from Athens
I ate one and a 1/2 donuts today. Just doing my civic duty!
ReplyDeleteTHREE MONTHS?! Wow. Whatever gets done / doesn't get done between now and then, don't worry: It'll be awesome! xo.
thank you for letting me know! i believe it's time to go get a donut - hope it tastes as good as those look.
ReplyDeleteMmmmhhhhhhm donuts. I want one!
ReplyDeleteWho needs an excuse to eat a donut today? This girl. Thank you!
ReplyDeletei need to put these important holidays on my calendar! those donuts look goooooood. xx
ReplyDelete@ Its all Greek to me - Loukoumades are soooo amazing! I only wish I had a year round supply here - I can only get them when the Greek festival rolls around each summer. I do have a recipe for them, but I still haven't gotten over my fear of frying.
ReplyDelete@ Nicole - YES! THREE MONTHS! Sadly, a lot of the stuff we have to do is big stuff, rather than details we could let go of. We procrastinated, big time. : (
11:44 pm on doughnut day and I missed it! Can I get a do over tomorrow please? hmmm Saturday morning doughnut, I think I can make this happen. Good luck with the countdown, three months!
ReplyDeleteso that's why there were doughnuts in my office kitchen today, which i happily ate :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect way to celebrate doughnut day. I'm gutted I missed it.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe it's only 3 months away! Whee! Are you feeling terrible relaxed or anxious at this point? I hope you are feeling organized which is another state of heaven!
ReplyDeleteOh man all day on national donut day I was seeing articles and pictures of donuts on news sites. It made my mouth water when I was stuck at work with no access to a good donut lol
ReplyDeleteI definitely celebrated National Donut Day with a coffee and donut date with a great friend. Your donuts look tastier than the one I had! Enjoy the last few months of wedding planning!
